Bruins Assistant Coach Geoff Ward Off The Hook: Tyler Seguin Involved, AGAIN? (Dirty Little Hamster Pt. 3)
No matter which way we turn it seems Tyler Seguin is involved in everything on the lighter side of hockey these days (but mostly the weird). As if his seemingly smelly apartment with his grammy award-nominated singing dog wasn't enough after his European adventure, now we finally have an answer as to what went down that night when Boston Bruins' assistant coach, Geoff Ward, was accused of littering:
As you can see, around the :33 or :34s mark, a hand moves and throws what seems to be a red piece coming down. The hand motion, once looked at closely, doesn't seem to come from Ward, but someone off camera. The red piece in question can be confirmed by these pictures of other atheletes using the same brand or packaging:
You see...Same packaging right?? Anyways, Tyler takes the blame for something that he stuck up his nose & then threw out. But that's normal you say, playing sports you say, & I agree! But with Tyler's track record of being notoriously unkempt, & the fact that he threw it so hard it went into the stands reather then the team bench leads me to believe that we have confirmation the Tyler Seguin is the NHL's Dirty Little Hamster!

Screw Jarome Iginla Talks: Let's Watch Some Weather!
Amidst of all the Jarome Iginla talk, whether he went to Boston or Pittsburgh (which was a hilarious attempt at trolling), I'd like to bring you an incredible weather report done by Phoenix Coyotes very own Mikkel Boedker courtesy of the NHL Network:
Classic stuff right there. But all jokes aside, it seems that the new CBA hasn't really altered the thinking of the league's GMs. A lot of the tension that forced the lockout was the ridiculous player contracts that were fueled by cutthroat GMs that were focused so much on winning that they did whatever it took to do it.
Not that that's such a bad thing, but when Pittsburgh is making a push like this, I can see Chicago & possily Boston & Anaheim also putting their foot on the gas, further accelerating contracts & trade negotiations through the roof. I guess we'll have to deal with it when 2021-2022 NHL Season comes around.

Boston Bruins Coach Throws Earpiece In Fans Drink
So a report from both Deadspin & Yardbarker from last nights game shows a strange one-in-a-million incident occuring. Boston Bruins assistant Geoff Ward seems to have had a malfunction with his earpiece (or got tired of it), & instead of handing it to someone else who would dispatch of it, decides to do it himself:
I think that video of the Bruins fan catching the puck in his cup was better:
A lot of "cup-action" in Boston. Final word of advice, drink your beer up in the breezeway at TD Garden to avoid anything flying into your $12 cup of golden nectar. Speaking of cup-action, maybe that can start trending on Twitter? #Cupaction..

NHL Power Rankings: Week #9 (2013)
My apologies for not having this ranking out sooner like we normally do but this weekend in Miami was a tad bit insane. Today, we present to you the T.O.A. Week #9 NHL Power Rankings with any futher ado! Brenden Morrow has been dealt & with the surging Penguins it seems like they are stacking talent to go deep into the post-season. This week there was an collective movement up in the majority of all clubs' power index. Chicago continues to top the rankings but Pittsburgh, like said early, has been creeping up on that stellar power index, knocking Anaheim out the #2 spot. Washington continues it bi-polar tendency, moving down 10 spots last week, then up 10 this week (I'd hate to be a Capitals fan right now with all that uncertainty). The two statistical anomalies (Tampa Bay & Nashville) have started to show their truer forms (Tampa Bay dropping 2 spots & Nashville up 4). One thing is for sure, with playoffs only on average a month away, teams that are shoe-ins are maintaining, while teams who need that extra push are fighting. Let's get into the ranks:
Who's Hot?: Washington (last week "Not") & Dallas (last week "Not")
Who's Not?: Phoenix & Philadelphia

Tyler Seguin: A Dirty Little Hamster?? (Pt. 2)
So Tyler does it again. I worte a story over a month ago about the hygeine of Seguin, & it seems to be kind of true. I came across this report by Yardbarker about how the Bruins have fun or whatever the hell they like to talk about & saw a video that Tyler posted on his Twitter account.
“@freddybender: @tylerseguin92 this is what happens when you're on the road. #madhouseyfrog.us/mz49zmmfjpqrqu…” yes.Ill be home soon familyApparently his dog can sing, but his domicile seems a bit unkempt right after a road trip. Not to mention the ladies will probably love how he's in nothing but a robe & some underwear.

Sexy Ad For AHL's Syracuse Crunch
The Tampa Bay Lightning's AHL affiliate, the Syracuse Crunch, is having some fun with their marketing these days. Sportress of Blogitude reports that they are taking there time to skew a sexual reference to a possible escort service.
Here's the original story: http://www.sportressofblogitude.com/2013/03/14/minor-league-hockeys-syracuse-crunch-have-a-pseudo-phone-sex-billboard-ad-photo/
Like the billboard says, "From Tampa, with Love!"

Insane Physics!: Puck Breaks In Two During Swiss League Goal
This story goes to FootBasket.com: In a game between Fribourg-Gottéron and EHC Biel, Cedric Botter apparenlty either scored or tried to block the puck (not quite too sure what team he's on) whilst the puck hit the left goal post & basically shatters in two on impact:
I was going to make a joke something like, "I wonder if they'll score it as two goals?!" But that got erased quickly as I read down the article & found out they took away the goal. Oh well, next time.

NHL Power Rankings: Week #8 (2013)
As we begin the second half of the compact 2013 NHL season, we seem to be getting a sense of who & what we'll see heading into the post season. Today, we present to you the T.O.A. Week #8 NHL Power Rankings! As the trade deadline is quickly approaching, only minor deals have been occurring. While we are getting closer to the finish line, we are going to see some match-ups develop (but right now may be to early to tell). This week there was an collective movement down in the majority of all clubs' power index. Chicago maintains the league's powerhouse while Anaheim seems to be creeping up on the fiery Blackhawks. Some incredible drops should be noted: Washington went from the "Who's Hot" list to the "Who's Not" in just one week, dropping a whopping total of 10 spots. The two statistical anomalies (Tampa Bay & Nashville) continue to smooth out slowly due to their lack-luster play (Tampa Bay dropping one spot & Nashville 2spots). Without any more delay, let's get into the new ranks & examine the way the beginning of the second half!:
Who's Hot?: St. Louis, Minnesota & Winnipeg
Who's Not?: Washington & Dallas
